Fresh Start Likely At Michigan
Not one regular in this weekend’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race has won at Michigan.In fact, the only entry who has taken a checkered flag there is two-time winner and past series champion Travis Kvapil (2004, ‘07). Kvapil has run mostly a part-time schedule in the truck series, starting only four races in the last three years combined. His last series win came in 2007.So, consider it a strong possibility that Saturday after the Careers for Veterans 200, there will be a new victor crowned.With 12 different winners in 14 seasons – Greg Biffle and Kvapil are the only repeat winners – Michigan is anyone’s race to win.

Let’s take a look at this year’s prospects:

The Chase Countdown Challenge Continues for Sprint Cup Drivers

Five races on five very different tracks give NASCAR Sprint Cup drivers a challenge as they countdown to the Chase. 

That’s what faces the Sprint Cup Series and the 2014 Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. For 11 drivers, it’s all or nothing time. For those 11 drivers with wins – and a likely Chase spot – a victory means three more bonus points tacked on their total to start the Chase.

But, really, these next five races are all about those with no wins. There are some big names out there battling for their playoff hopes – Kasey Kahne, Tony Stewart, Greg Biffle. If the Chase started today, only Biffle would make it among the three perennial Chasers.

So while this is not yet panic time, there’s a definite sense of urgency – with a big opportunity awaiting drivers on Sunday afternoon.  Continue reading →

Progress continues on DAYTONA Rising 

DAYTONA Rising is a $400 million reimagining of an American icon – Daytona International Speedway. Five expanded and redesigned entrances, or “injectors,” will lead fans to a series of escalators and elevators, transporting them to three different concourse levels. Each level features spacious social areas, or “neighborhoods,” along the nearly mile-long frontstretch. When redevelopment ends, Daytona International Speedway will have about 101,000 permanent, wider and more comfortable seats, twice as many restrooms and three times as many concession stands. In addition, the Speedway will feature over 60 luxury suites with track side views and a completely revamped hospitality experience for corporate guests. Continue reading →

But there’s something different about this year, right? Considered for so long by so many as a champion-in-waiting, Earnhardt looks to assume the aura of a champion-on-deck. Continue reading →
